Here is chapter 5 of Lucy's Fairy Tales. Enjoy! :)
[Lucy's POV]
I brightened up. "What is it? Anything for my mentor."
"First, untie me cause I think my arms are about to fall off." I commanded the rope to untie itself.
"Thank god." The werewolf massaged then stretched his wrist.
"Second, do you have food? Cause starving for three day straight is not something you want to experience." I heard a growl from his stomach.
I reached into my bag full of things and took out a piece of dried beef that I got. I handed it to him, and he gobbled it right up.
I waited a few moments for him to finish up his meal.
"That was very satisfying. Thanks a lot. Okay, last but not least, I respect you if you respect me." He wiped his mouth with his right arm and licked his lips clean and smiled at me.
I smiled back and nodded.
[Wolf's POV]
I wiped my hands on my pants, or what was left of my pants, and stood up. This was good for me. By the looks of her, she was pretty loaded. And I had nothing better to do with my life, so how about keeping some girlie company? Not a bad deal.
I went over to her, and shook her hand. Her hands were so thin and soft. Then I frowned, disturbed with that sudden thought.
"Please take good care of me," she said, looking straight at me with those warm brown eyes.
"Yeah, whatever," I replied, avoiding her stare.
[Lucy's POV]
I leaned on the tree, wrapping myself with a warm comfy blanket that Virgo brought from the celestial world. I looked around and saw Wolf crawled up and sleeping against the next tree. I summoned Virgo and asked her to put a blanket around Wolf.
I looked up at the starry sky, with all kinds of thoughts and feelings: sorrow, excitement, anger, and relief that I found someone I can trust. I looked at Wolf again, and smiled at myself. Even though he looks rough on the outside, I can see the kindness in his eyes, just like Natsu's when I first met him…
I shook my head. No, Natsu is not a friend anymore. He is my past, but nothing else. A good memory, until recent. I tugged the blanket tighter and went to sleep.
"Oii! Wake up! Sleepy head, if you don't wake up this instant, I'm going to carry you to the pond and drop you!" The first sounds of morning was Wolf's shouts.
I opened my eyes, and saw wolf. His hair and face was wet, probably from washing his face.
"Ohayo, Wolf-san," I said, rubbing my eyes. I then smiled sleepily at him.
"O..oii! Go clean yourself up! You look horrible! And your bed hair… sheesh! Now scram!" Wolf said, turning his head. I saw his face go a little bit red… is the sun that hot already?
I went to the nearest fresh body of water and washed my face. Virgo was already out with a comfy towel. "Thank you, Virgo. Before you go back, can you help me change into something more training-suitable?" I asked.
"Hai, hime-sama. I understand." Virgo went back to the celestial world. A few moments later, she brought shorts and a sports bra.
"Thank you so much, Virgo! You may now leave." I changed to the clothes and went to where Wolf was stretching.
"Hey, sorry for the wait! I'm ready for today's training." I started stretching next to him.
"What's with that outfit? Isn't that a bathing suit? You need to wear something suitable for exercise, not swimming and sun tanning at the beach!" Wolf exclaimed, his cheeks red again.
"Hey, you're cheeks are red. Are you feeling okay? It's not even that hot…" I put one hand on his forehead and the other on mine to check his temperature.
Wolf's face got even redder, and he started stuttering. "Hey, girlie, wh… who gave you permission to touch me? Rule number one: don't touch me and my stuff, got it?"
"Jeez, I was just looking out for you. No need to be so mean about it, you bully." I pouted. Sheesh, what was his problem? "Anyways, what's the plan for today? Sword fighting? Magic training? Can you even do any magic?" I put my hands on my hips.
"Calm down. We need to start from the basics," Wolf smiled.
